The Ontario East Economic Development Commission was created 30 years ago with a mandate to develop, implement and administer strategies to attract new economic investment, facilitate economic growth and to defend against de-investment. Ontario East Economic Development Commission membership is comprised of professional economic developers and associated organizations and businesses representing cities, towns and regions in eastern Ontario, from Kawartha Lakes in the west, along the Lake Ontario shore to the Quebec border and north to Haliburton and Algonquin Park. Representing a region with over 2 million people in thirteen counties and municipalities, the organization exists to leverage the power of the broader economic region to ensure investment is optimized across eastern Ontario.
